Chapter 554 554. THAT'S BROKEN

Those words were followed by the appearance of a beam of searing silver light that crashed into the starry figure and pushed him backward, albeit the attack disappeared a moment later.

Noah saw that Elder Velsvon seemed ready to move, but the starry humanoid being raised its hand to stop the man from taking action.

"The last we met my finger almost killed you," the figure taunted, completely unhurt. "Let's see if that won't be the case again.

Noah watched the starry figure vanish from his line of sight and shook his head. The environment already blended with the dark figure seemingly possessing stars in its insides. That place was its domain, or rather his domain.

Danger appeared in Noah's mind when the world around him saw ripples of force spreading in its fabric, the outline of a fist appeared out of thin air, but Cudgel suddenly appeared in front of that speeding limb.

An explosion of remarkable force unfolded at that point as even Cudgel's heavy structure, although in normal size, had been sent flying.

Noah felt his figure pierce the night-like space seemingly stretching forever.

He stopped himself a moment after but his instincts moved and he transformed into a streak of blinding silver light moving erratically in that domain.

"Tch!" the voice of the figure rang out followed by its full body. "You're moving quite rapidly. This body wasn't meant to travel at such speeds."

"That means I can destroy it," Noah's voice emitted danger as he identified the power of that dummy.

"The peak of the fourth tier," Noah noted, pushing, essence into his daggers, he wouldn't unleash the same attack as when he fought with Maya, but seventy smaller powered slashes flew out of his blades after merely swinging them a few times.

Those slashes were powered by speed essence, meaning they almost instantly arrived on the starry figure.

An explosion of stunning might unfolded into that night-like domain possessing stars. Unfortunately, it suddenly disappeared.

"That was genuinely strong." the figure giggled. "But it's still not enough to destroy this dummy."

Silver triangles unfolded behind Noah's figure and he watched huge beams of icy-mist-like particles streak forward with terrible power.

Merely inches away from the dummy and they abruptly disappeared. Or rather, they never arrived on its body.

Noah felt his instincts take note of something when suddenly, he saw beams of icy particles spring forth from his surroundings to slam into his figure.

Fortunately, because those attacks were made from the speed force's energy, the moment they were about the hit Noah's body they destroyed themselves into nothingness, never getting to touch him.

"Oh..." The figure and even elder Velsvon remained amused by that scenery. There seemed to be a glitch, but the rules were simple. Speed essence would never hurt a child of speed. They were highly favored by that essence.

"What did you do there?" Noah asked cutting the beams of icy particles short. They had been redirected to him. Now he wanted to know how such happened.

"Land a proper hit on this dummy first and ill reveal my ability." Things were getting interesting and the mind behind the starry figure wanted to take part.

Noah remained silent at that point whilst his mind connected the dots from what he'd seen.

"This starry domain seems endless, but I was never teleported away from the sky. Rather, it was created in our position." He started to speak.

"Still, it seems as though we've left the renga regions due to the vast amount of... space," his eyes trembled when he arrived at that revelation.

"You're ruining the fun," the dummy seemingly clicked its tongue whilst it silently disappeared from the sky to appear right before Noah who transformed into a silver streak, arriving where the dummy had been.

"Still, how did my attacks reach me when no magical counter spell was activated? It's either I'm wrong or you found a way to manipulate the space around us, allowing those beams to reach me instead of you," Noah continued talking, dodging the offensives of the starry figure.

"You're annoying," the figure snorted stretching its hand towards Noah's figure after throwing punches that never struck. Noah also appeared far in the distance.

Noah blinked and found himself right in front of the figure. He had not moved, neither had the figure moved, but that didn't change his situation. He had somehow arrived before the figure, close enough to be touched.

"Gotcha," the humanoid dummy, exclaimed allowing its finger to shoot toward Noah's chest.

The impact with Muliix's material remained spectacular, but to the figure's shock, Noah's figure exploded into a wave of silver sparks.

"Crackling duplicate," Noah muttered as magical triangles lit up on his real body, which had been directly behind the one that exploded.

​ Twenty such figures came to be at that point and they all mimicked Noah's aura and even Muliix. Even his daggers were duplicated.

The event remained far more than stunning, but Noah didn't care since he streaked forward with all 19 of his duplicates, all of them moving at equal speeds.

"Your power is space. It's already too obvious. It's even more powerful now that we are within this domain of yours," Noah's voice rang out from all 20 figures as they arrived around the figure with blazing velocities.

"You could deflect projectiles. Let's see about erratic moving attacks," his voice rang out from only one figure as the rest unfolded into terrible waves of silver sparks engulfing the figure in their power.

Noah appeared far away from that event to unleash beams of silver light at the expanding sea of lightning bolts.

The beams of light, all 50 of them, were charged with the explosion sparks, and an explosion of blinding silver light unfolded drowning the darkness in the area like a star in deep space.

Noah waited for something strange like a deflection to happen, but nothing occurred. He watched the results of his attacks slowly vanish and after a few minutes he couldn't help but rethink his former evaluation.

The figure of the starry dummy revealed itself to be in a lying position, its legs crossed on its other knee and its face on its palm. Suggesting boredom.

"If you understand that I have control over space, then you should also have considered my ability to stretch the very fabric of space nigh-infinitely, making your attacks never reach me." Its words were heavy and what they implied even made its stunning opponent fall into thought.

"That's broken." Even Noah had to comment on the sheer wildness of such an ability.
